I usually buy the "cheekie" underwear at VS, I think that's what they are called. The silky/lace boy short style. But I was looking for just some simple cotton kind to wear to the gym. So DH and I went into VS last weekend and I picked out five pairs from the Pink line. I washed them and wore my first pair today....And I'm so NOT impressed!!! The cotton feels sorta stiff, not soft at all, and they shrunk a ton too much. AND when I put them on, there is a bit of lace up front and my finger went through the lace and it TORE!!! No kidding. First time wearing them. Five pairs for $25, I can't expect too much, but still. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
Anyone else try them and have this problem? I'm a little afraid to wear any of the other styles I bought now. ![]() ![]() I have to tell you, I was pretty weary about them from the start, but DH insisted I get the boy shorts with "Go Mustangs" on the butt! ![]() -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

The pink stuff is kinda ehhh. I honestly only go to VS when i need "bedtime" wear so my few experiences with their undergarments for everyday have been alright. I do have some pink brand clothes and they aren't very sturdy really...sorry they were such a downer for you.

I wear that pink brand and LOVE it.. you may have just gotten a pair that wasn't good to start out with... try your others and see if you like them...

That's a good point. I shouldn't knock 'em if I haven't tried the others. But man, a hole in the lace in just one wear?! ![]() -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

I haven't had any problems with them, either. I usually just get the 100% ones- I'm not a fan of lace- too itchy.

Thats what I normally wear and I don't think I've ever had a problem with them. Although, I did tear the lace on my stockings from there the day I bought them... that made me sooo mad, so I kinda know how you feel!

Hmm, I LOVE the Pink line and have never had an issue. Maybe you got a bad pair?
If you're looking for comfy pairs, have you tried Gap underwear? I typically don't buy it there, but do have a few pairs I'm quite happy with for everyday undies. This post has been edited by Brias3 on Aug 12 2007, 02:54 PM -------------------- |
